Chapter 113:
Advanced spells in the domain of an official mage are actually the most powerful spells that an ordinary official mage can master.
Its "standard strength" is between 600 Pa and 900 Pa.
But on top of this, there are actually "extreme spells" that very few people can learn.
——A spell with standard strength between 901 Pa and 1000 Pa!
The standard intensity range of extreme spells is relatively narrow, only a mere 100 Pa.
If you want to ask why, it has to do with the "theoretical limit" of the standard strength of spells.
——1000 Pa!
It is not difficult for the actual power of a spell to exceed the limit of 1000 pascals.
Just infuse more magic power into extreme spells or advanced spells.
But those are low returns brought about by high consumption.
It does not belong to the "optimal" field that the magic world of Farnes Continent has always pursued.
Compared to "thankless".
Mages prefer to add "new variables" to expand the original field wider!
——This is also the origin of the division of mage realms!
...
After testing the "quality" of the Great Knight Golem at the spell training ground.
Celine took Brand back to the studio.
When he returned to the studio, Brand immediately took off the armor from the Great Knight Golem.
——He wanted to confirm how much threat his spell could pose to the great knight.
Brand's first concern was energy consumption.
To calculate energy consumption.
Before going out today, Brand specially filled the Great Knight Golem with energy.
Different from the junior knight golem, in order to bear the huge energy consumption of the senior knight golem.
Its energy source was changed to a rechargeable magic crystal, which can store more than ten times the energy of an ordinary magic core.
After testing, Brand found that the golem's energy storage magic crystal only had about half of its energy left.
——The consumption is huge!
After observing the energy situation, Brand began to observe other parts of the golem.
Although many aspects of this golem involve his knowledge blind spots.
But what can also be seen is that many joints of this great knight golem are overloaded.
The structures in many locations even showed signs of damage.
What makes Brand regretful is that most of these problems are caused by the "overload" operation of the Great Knight Golem.
——The damage caused by the spell is not too much!
Then the facts are obvious:
the "overloaded" Great Knight Golem paid a "small price" to break Brand's spell head-on!
In other words, just looking at physical fitness, Brand's spell can indeed pose a certain degree of threat to the great knight!
However, this threat is not too great.
Seeing that Brand had almost finished checking it, Celine began to evaluate Brand's spell scroll:
"A huge amount of magic power will not increase the power of the spell infinitely. The further away from the standard strength, the more difficult it will be to increase the power of the spell. .
This is also the reason why your spell is so huge. Most of the magic power gathered by the rune circle is used to expand the range of the spell." After hearing what Celine said,
Brand nodded.
He also discovered this.
When drawing the rune array of the giant spear of the gods, each rune Brand used his mental space, and the mental power contained in it was five times the upper limit of his current mental power.
——Several times or even ten times the consumption brings less than double the power increase.
Although there is also a reason why the damage of this spell is scattered and not concentrated enough.
But the main reason is that the increase in power is close to the limit, and more magic power is used to increase the range.
At this time, Brand suddenly became confused about a certain issue.
He asked Celine:
"Isn't it the realm of the magister above the tenth rune of the Rune Array?
Why does it feel like there is no sense of existence in the realm of the official mage?
In addition, the ultimate spell is the most powerful spell of the official mage, right? .
But I feel that I can use it when I am a senior mage apprentice.
Is the difference between a mage apprentice and a formal mage only the reserve of magic and spiritual power?"
Hearing Brand's question, Xi Lin smiled and said:
"You just ignored this problem because of the complicated writing of runes. Think about how ordinary rune magicians can make the actual power of a spell scroll exceed the standard strength of the spell." After hearing what Celine said
, Brand suddenly remembered a technology that he had not studied in depth because of the traditional writing of runes.
——Composite magic circle!
The so-called composite array, as the name suggests, is actually multiple rune arrays combined into one.
Commonly used composite arrays are mostly a main array and multiple auxiliary arrays.
——This is the same as a person wearing multiple pieces of equipment!
Like Brand's previous Spear of the Gods, if a few more amplification circles are added to it, the power can be further increased!
There are two reasons why Brand has never delved into the compound magic circle.
First, it is also a means to improve the effect of the rune array. Compared with the composite array, traditional writing of runes is easier for Brand, and the spell effect is also better.
Second, the compound magic circle is very troublesome. It improves the effectiveness of the magic circle by making the rune magic circle complex.
The reason why many rune arrays are so huge is mostly because of the use of composite array technology.
In addition, the composite magic circle does not draw the complete magic circle base first and then draw the runes as usual.
The order in which it is drawn is the base plate of the magic circle - the runes - the base plate of the magic circle - the runes...
Any mistake in any step will cause the previous efforts to be wasted, and all the previously drawn runes and the magic circle base plate will be invalid!
This is also one of the troublesome parts of the compound array.
As a result, a problem arises!
If you don't look at the mental energy consumption, compared with the runes, the magic circle base is actually a more complicated thing!
Brand can draw runes and other things easily.
As for the magic circle base, Brand must concentrate on it to ensure the success rate.
——This makes him not want to study this thing even more!
Based on the above troublesome and complicated reasons, Brand has never studied this technology in depth.
Now that Celine said this, Brand suddenly remembered that there was such a thing.
Because drawing the eleventh rune requires too much mental power.
Brand has recently fallen into the "bottleneck" of studying rune formations.
It’s not a bad idea to study this thing now.
After thinking through these questions, Brand asked Celine curiously:
"Is the 'auxiliary magic circle' in the composite magic circle the domain of the official mage?"
After hearing Brand's question, Celine explained :
"The term auxiliary array is actually not accurate. In essence, the auxiliary array is just simulating the characteristics of a formal mage. That characteristic is
actually called 'element affinity', although it is still far from a formal mage. There is a certain distance, but I think you can try to understand it."
